b********x 发帖数: 206 | 1 While vacationing in Switzerland, physician Chris Nielsen (Robin Williams)
meets artist Annie Collins (Annabella Sciorra). They are instantly attracted
to each other, and bond as if they had known each other for a long time.
They marry and have two children: Ian (Josh Paddock) and Marie (Jessica
Brooks Grant). Their idyllic life comes to an end when the children die in a
car crash. Life becomes very difficult: Annie suffers a mental breakdown,
and the strains on their marriage threaten to lead to divorce, but they
manage to struggle through their losses.
On the anniversary of the day they decided not to divorce, Chris is killed
in a car accident. Unaware that he is dead and confused when nobody can
interact with him, Chris lingers on Earth. He watches Annie's attempts to
cope with the loss and he attempts to communicate with her. When his
attempts only leave her more distraught, and he decides to move on.
Chris awakes in Heaven, and finds that his immediate surroundings are
controlled by his imagination. He meets a man (Cuba Gooding Jr.) whom Chris
recognizes as Albert, his friend and mentor from his medical residency.
Albert will be his guide in this new life. Albert teaches Chris about his
new abilities. They are surprised when a Blue Jacaranda tree appears
unbidden in Chris's surroundings, matching a tree in a new painting by Annie
. Albert explains that this is a sign that the couple are truly soul mates.
Chris encounters an Asian woman with the name tag "Leona", whom he
recognizes as his daughter Marie, living in an area shaped like a diorama
she loved in life. The two share a tearful reunion.
Meanwhile on Earth, Annie is unable to cope with the loss of her husband and
commits suicide. Chris, who is initially relieved that her suffering is
over, quickly becomes angry when he learns that those who commit suicide are
sent to Hell, as it is their nature to create "anti-fantasy" worlds based
on their pain. He is adamant that he will rescue Annie from Hell, despite
Albert's insistence that no one has ever succeeded in doing so. Albert
agrees to find Chris a "tracker" (who takes the form of Sigmund Freud) to
help find Annie's soul.
On the journey to Hell, Chris finds himself recalling his son, Ian.
Remembering how he'd called him the one man he'd want at his side to brave
Hell, Chris realizes Albert is Ian. Ian explains that he chose Albert's
appearance because he knew that Chris would listen to Albert without
reservation. Before they part ways, Ian begs Chris to remember how he saved
his marriage following Ian and Marie's deaths. Chris then journeys onward
with the tracker.
After traversing a field containing the faces of the damned, they come to a
dark and twisted replica of Chris and Annie's house. The tracker, who
reveals himself as the real Albert, warns Chris that if he stays with Annie
for more than a few minutes he may become permanently trapped in Hell. All
that Chris can reasonably expect is a chance to say a final farewell to
Annie.
Chris enters the house to find Annie suffering from amnesia, even unable to
remember her suicide. Unable to stir her memories, he chooses to join Annie
forever in Hell. As he announces his intent to stay, his words parallel
something he said to Annie when he left her in an institution following
their children's deaths, and she regains her memories. Chris instantly
awakes with Annie in Heaven.
Chris and Annie are reunited with their children, whose original appearances
are restored. Chris proposes reincarnation, so that he and Annie can
experience life together all over again. The film ends with Chris and Annie
meeting again as young children. | b********x 发帖数: 206 | 2 Chris encounters an Asian woman with the name tag "Leona", whom he

Is this where Leonana came from?
